A. Diabetic nephropathy
Variables	β	F	P
Sex (female, 0; male, 1)	0.351	8.73	0.004
Diabetes duration (years)	0.246	4.29	0.246

Explanatory variables are age (years), sex (female, 0; male, 1), log-transformed diabetes duration (years), HbA1c (%) and GA (%). R² = 0.406, F = 5.90 and P = 0.005

B. Diabetic retinopathy
Variables	β	F	P
Diabetes duration (years)	0.350	9.07	0.002
GA (%)	0.255	4.82	0.016

Explanatory variables are age (years), sex (female, 0; male, 1), log-transformed diabetes duration (years), HbA1c (%) and GA (%). R² = 0.478, F = 8.87 and P < 0.001
